So,

I need some help, choosing the right one. Unfortunately I can't demo any of the bike, except Firebird of my friend.

From what i've read, Mach5.5 is my favourite. Only thing that concerns me is travel of its bike.

I mostly ride black diamond or sometimes double black diamond trails, but also easier ones and I also like to climb a lot.

I really don't know which one to choose. My friend said to me I should pick the Firebird, because it climbs wery well.

This is how I see the bikes:

Firebird: pros: lots of travel
cons: don't have a place for bottle

Mach6 (2017): pros: geometry
cons: don't like the look of it that much

Mach5.5: pros: great climber, the look
cons: short rear travel

Go with the mach 6. If your only issue with it is the looks, pick that bike. Youve also got aluminum options with that guy.

The Mach 6 is the best climber of the 3, dont let the travel numbers fool you.
